Abstract
The effects of pressure, mass flow rate, velocity and temperature of control flow on the performance of thrust modulation in vortex valve SRM were studied experimentally and numerically. It shows that the increase of the temperature, mass flow rate and velocity of the control flow can all increase the thrust modulation ratio.
